60 people have ridden the wheel in 30 minutes

The time is given as:

[tex]Time =30 \minutes[/tex]

The number of seats on the wheel is given as:

[tex]Seats = 10\\[/tex]

The number of people on a seat is given as:

[tex]People =2[/tex]

Every minute a seat exits the platform.

This means that, 2 people exit the platform every minute

So, the number (n) of people that exit the platform after 30 minutes would be:

[tex]n =People \times Time[/tex]

This gives

[tex]n = 2\times 30[/tex]

Multiply

[tex]n = 60[/tex]

Hence, 60 people have ridden the wheel
